Rotary Peninsula 2025 Birth Tree

Do you know someone who was born this year?

Rotary Peninsula Annual Birth Tree and Family Garden project invites you join this year’s tree and plaque, celebrating the newest members of our growing community.  

Book your baby’s name on the birth tree 

Join this year’s Birth Tree for an investment of $50. For this, you will receive a timeless tribute of your loved one in the form of a tree and plaque, but more importantly, $45 of every contribution goes straight back here to PARC and PINES to help more children build confidence in the water.

Where does your donation go?  

At PARC, we have a vision that Every Child in Frankston Can Swim. However, at the moment, only around 20% of children in our local community are currently gaining ongoing vital survival skills which could save their life. 

By participating in the Birth Tree, your contribution will go directly to Funding baby swim programs.  

This would see us visit mothers’ groups at Frankston Maternal Health Centres. These mothers’ groups would be invited to begin their water safety and familiarisation experience with a free 30 minute session at PARC.  

Help us achieve this big, important, life saving goal that Every Child in Frankston Can Swim! Buy your Birth Tree name today
